A
mindset, in decision theory and general systems theory, refers to a set of assumptions, methods or notations held by one or more people or groups of people which is so established that it creates a powerful incentive within these people or groups to continue to adopt or accept prior behaviours, choices, or tools. This phenomenon of cognitive bias is also sometimes described as mental inertia, "groupthink", or a "paradigm", and it is often difficult to counteract its effects upon analysis and decision making processes.
On the positive sides a mindset can also be seen as incident of a persons Weltanschauung or philosophy of life. For example there has been quite some interest in the typical mindset of an entrepreneur.

I'd suggest after reading references from the Net, why don't you look at the result of the mindset survey. Then you'd see what's the prevailing "paradigm" of the masses in KLCC and make the necessary connection. Then, you don't need to crack the gobbledygook from the Net.
ReplyDeleteSo, judging by the first para, then what could be possible disincentives for the negative "mental inertia"?
